Description
A fascinating chronicle of the pioneers of the Old Southwest, which is mainly the colonial settlement of Kentucky and Tennessee, and the Revolutionary War battles to keep the colonies in American hands. This narrative is founded largely on original sources-on the writings and journals of pioneers and contemporary observers, such as Doddridge and Adair, and on the public documents of the period as printed in the Colonial Records and in the American Archives.
